Judgment text as reported

Mst. JEEMA VS State S. 417---appeal against acquittal---Scope---When an accused person is acquitted from the charge by a Court of competent jurisdiction then, double presumption of innocence is attached to such order, with which High Court and the Supreme Court normally do not interfere unless impugned order is arbitrary, capricious, fanciful and against the record---Interference is made only when it appears that there has been gross misreading of the evidence which amounts to miscarriage of justice---Scope of appeal against acquittal is considerably narrow and limited than an appeal against conviction.
